First of all, here's the only picture I have of Christmas Eve or Christmas Day since my photographer boyfriend couldn't be there due to a sick doggie and the rest of us fail completely at taking pictures (suffice it to say, we all had a lovely day together) A dark iphone selfie of me and...

Decorations and running
I may be flailing at the Holidailies commitment, but at least I did write a Blogmutt post on Friday! So, the intention to have writing here spark the re-ignition of my writing THERE has worked! Right now my focus is on preparing for the Holiday Half Marathon on the 29th and on preparing for Christmas.... Continue Reading →
Sunday Funday!
Not much time to write - too tired - at the rugby game yesterday a friend gave me her Charger season tickets to use for the game today. Even though I knew it would be pushing the limits of my energy levels, I took them because - hey - Club level! Four tickets! The Giants... Continue Reading →
What have you done that you never thought you would?
If you had told the 2010 version of me, that in three short years my shoe money would all be spent on this collection: Or that I would happily leave the house wearing this combination: Or that my reaction to finding out I needed to leave work early today in order to take... Continue Reading →
Thanksgiving Week in Pictures
Took the week off work - the captions (and images - tell the tale) - well, except for the Thanksgiving meals that we had on Tuesday night and Thursday since I never took my phone out for those.

That means running jumped up in the priority list as of October 1. Renee found a great training plan that... Continue Reading →
About that half marathon….
Back in the Spring when I took on the Football Co-Liaison task I pretty much stepped away from everything else not related to my day job or taking care of things at home. I stopped slowed down and then entirely stopped writing for Blogmutt (which I will return to in December) and I had to... Continue Reading →
Bringing the outside in
The exciting news this week was confirmation from "upstairs" that the office I was hoping to get in the targeted move for our area is indeed mine. Which means - something within the next month or two, I will no longer be a basement dweller! Do you know it's been 10 years at least down... Continue Reading →
The results of carrying a camera (phone) at all times
Pictures from my iPhone taken within the last week - starting with Sunday as I flew home from San Jose. Tales of that trip will begin dribbling out on my PP site over the next week or two. Meanwhile, the north San Diego coast line was sort of awesome from the air. The... Continue Reading →
A weekend in pictures
Friday night: after a week that was not necessarily as frazzling as last week, but included the extra special ingredient that was a Mon-Fri off and on (mostly on) hormonal series of head/shoulder/neck/sinus aches so...yeah...it sort of didn't matter that I only had one football meeting to go to (which was actually quite good and...
